We asked: Are Victorian-style blouses In or Out?
You said: They’re in, but you have your reservations about them. 45% of you voted for them, while 34% think they’re Out. Another 21% believe that they’re on their way out.
Omiru’s take: Though they were everpresent last Fall and Winter, it seems that the fashion community is tiring of these questionably flattering blouses. And, let’s face it, so are we. It’s too bad, since something about these blouses screams Spring, but hey, we’re ready to move on to the next silhouette.

Key Takeaways: Nothing about this collection was dull. Loads of shine and asymmetrical patterns made this the perfect ending to the GenArt fashion show.
Color Palette: Black and white were prevalent, but not boring. Purple, yellow, red and blue were interesting diversions from the black and white.
Silhouettes: The whole enchilada: miniature booty shorts, loose summer shorts, deep v-neck stretch tops, belly-baring crop tops, sleeveless tops with frills at the ends, boatneck dresses with full skirts, and dresses with asymmetrical bottoms.
Accessories Report: Bright-colored and studded handbags. Sandals and pointy pumps adorned the models’ feet.
What’s Wearable: About 3 or 4 pieces were definitely street-worthy: a white boatneck dress with full bottom, a similar white boatneck minidress, a black studded loose dress, a v-neck black miniskirt.
What’s Not Wearable: Some of the color combinations might save you a spot on a "Fashion Don’t" list.
